LOL!

I’m 77 and still waiting for that to happen. By the way, you should read your posts before you hit the “submit” button.

Be sure you don’t keep you registration form in your car then because that is something of value

Maybe, perhaps, it could happen ... someone just forgot to lock their car. It is not a pattern, it is not a statement, it is an "accident". So why do you have to insult people of faith? Are people who have no faith infallible? I doubt it.

Maybe the simple answer is that the driver forgot to lock the car. I know I have. I just chalk it up to a "senior moment". I have even left the car running, unlocked and had dinner? That was embarrassing and could have resulted in a stolen car. This was in Arizona.

No
Honest people are honest when no one is watching.

we always lock both house and car....once you get into the habit it feels unnatural not to

My Driver Information Center menu has a setting to allow the car to lock itself when you exit with the fob and the horn beeps once. Leave the fob in the car and exit, the horn beeps twice to remind you. It has other programable settings to operate as you choose with setting info in the owner's manual. My car is always locked, even in my garage - wouldn't have it any other way.

I had an older vehicle and never left any valuables inside so never locked the doors. Low and behold one morning I come out and find the passenger window shattered. Someone attempted to steal the radio and never tried the door handle first.

This made me think why would anyone leave their car unlock. I felt awful that I open up someone else vehicle. I didn’t touch anything I promise. This made me think why would anyone leave their car unlocked? FYI my house and car are lock 24/7. Do you you leave your car unlock when you go places?

Maybe they forgot or dont want to. Their chouce. Why care?

You are never supposed to leave it in your car anyway. If the car gets stolen, driver speeds and gets stopped. Hands the cop the registration. Ok. All in order and hes on his way. Have noregistration? Well. Might turn out different

not a small hick town , not a 40 acre spread.. We have lying dishonest people all over and not just neighbors ! just this week we had people opening cars and walking into garages stealing stuff. Why can't you take a minute to lock up .????

[caljeff]

I very seldom leave my house unlocked when I am away; however, I frequently leave my autos unlocked. Nothing of value is in vehicles and the chances of it's being ripped off are small due to the digital nature of the ignition.
